chu-keshi



An original eraser for the gift shop at the Chichu Art Museum.
It can be sad to see the corners of a new, snow-white eraser wear down and get dirty, so Nendo design wanted to create an eraser that already felt lovingly worn in, like a secondhand T-shirt or a pair of vintage jeans. With its sloping angles, the chu-keshi eraser is less likely to feel old or worn out!

Miniature



What is so attractive about miniature models for electronic devices? Maybe we are in love with these small scale models, because as children we constantly dreamed on having a toy version of our parents' luxurious turntable equipment or the mysterious Reel To Reel! Also the nostalgia of the tangible knobs plays its part ...

The miniature offers tiny components so difficult to hand craft!!! So I selected here insanely cute hand-made cardboard models by Dan McPharlin. Check out his selection ...
